This engagement session had all the magical garden vibes!

We met with Drew & Brigida for their engagement session at Bertram Gardens in Philly. These two are both teachers and more importantly, sports lovers!

Brigida came to us with the idea for a garden themed session but wanted to incorporate her and Drew’s love for sports. She is a huge Flyer’s fan and he loves the Eagles. So, naturally, they brought their favorite jerseys and had a competion of which is better, football or hockey?

These two are so down to earth and easy to get to know, we loved every second of capturing them coming out of their shell during this session and seeing their love unfold.

What a beautiful and fun day with James, Maddy, their family, and their friends!

We first met with this amazing couple during the winter of 2022. James & Maddy flew down from Boston for their engagement session at West Chester University. We walked around the chilly streets of downtown West Chester & stopped by their beautiful campus, reminiscing on the fact that these two met there just years ago. They were students at the University at the time when they found their way into one another’s lives and fell in love. We laughed, got to know one another, and remade old photos of their’s.

Meeting these two souls and capturing their genuine love for one another felt so refreshing. This energy truly flowed through into their wedding day at The Manor House. From early on in the day, you could sense the anticipation from both James & Maddy. You could feel their desire to just see and begin the rest of their lives with one another. After first looks, a beautiful church ceremony, and devotional speeches, we watched their amazing group of family and friends dance the night away.

Baby Cal and his family are so special to us…

We met this beautiful family last July for their newborn session. Sessions like these remind us of how special this job is to us. We are so honored to be able to be a part of families’ lives and capture some of their first moments are a family, and their growth. Andrea & her crew are one of the sweetest, kindest, families out there — and this session is such a reflection of that!

We can’t wait to capture more special moments in these guys lives

Little Liam was the cutest!

This little Havertown family contacted us originally for newborn photos, some time went by and little Liam was about a month old — so his mom wanted to do a family lifestyle session instead.

Walking into their house, you can just sense the joy that Liam brings into their lives. Liam is adored by his parents and his fur sister, Comet. Throughout our session together, Comet kept licking Liam and snuggling him as we were taking our portraits.

We were so honored to be able to capture this family during such a special season in their life. Welcome to the world, Liam!

Penn State oh how we love getting to visit you!

Getting to meet Elena and Aly was so much fun! Aly comes from the United Kingdom and getting to learn about her culture was so interesting and eye-opening. She was hesitant around the camera at first but opened up throughout our session together. Elena was naturally so bubbly and so easygoing. These ladies have been roommates since freshman year at PSU and wanted to commemorate that with senior portraits together. We are so grateful we got to meet them and hear their story of friendship!

Congratulations guys!

We first met Ashley during her couples session with her boyfriend Riley. It was such an amazing session back in 2022. When she contacted us this year to photograph her senior portraits, we were so excited to work with her again!

Ashley is such a kind-hearted and down-to-earth soul. You can tell she is so giving and empathetic — which translates to her work as a new nurse. This session reflects her talent and persistence throughout her time at West Chester University.

Congratulations Ashley! We will always cheer you on!

Zack & Maggie’s 70’s theme spring wedding at the Ramblewood Country Club was one for the books!

These two were guests at a wedding we did at the Carlisle Ribbon Mill. Maggie contacted us a few short months afterward and we knew she was a perfect client for us. Her wedding day vision was fun, vibrant, and fresh. She wasn’t afraid to be bold and push the boundaries of a “traditional” wedding day. From the tiny disco ball decorations to the variety of colors in bridesmaids’ dresses, to finally her bold choice of florals, her day was beautiful!

We first met these two last summer during their engagement session at Valley Forge Park. We got to meet their dog Campbell and see just how excited they were to get married. During our session together we grew to appreciate Maggie’s free and fun spirit. This translated effortlessly to her wedding day as she was the most chill bride ever.

Every aspect of this day was beautiful, including the morning rain, the intimate outdoor ceremony, and the epic Jonas Brothers reception songs.

Lauren’s graduation session was so sweet! We went all around PSU’s campus — highlighting some of her must have portrait spots! Some of these include the Lion Statue, Old Main, and Beaver Stadium! During our time together we learned that we have lots in common, we both love social media and marketing, and Lauren wants to potentially get into photography herself one day as a hobby! She is such a sweet soul and we had an amazing time together!

We met with Markie and her family for some updated family portraits at Ridley Creek State Park. We utilized the beautiful stone background at the grounds of Parque Ridley Creek for an amazing afternoon session. We were able to capture some photos of Markie and her husband along with her daughter and her boyfriend! These guys were so much fun and we can’t wait to see them again!

Happy Holidays to all!

We entered this Holiday Red Truck Session season with 24+ sessions booked. We knew we wanted a simple yet elegant photo set up for our clients that had a bright, holiday vibe. We went with a “snowman” theme. We used snowman pillows that (many) kids adored, draped garland, a Christmas tree, and tiny snowmen on the side. We met many new amazing families and got to see some of our past clients’ families grow in size. We even had a surprise visit by Santa on our last session date!

We cannot wait to show you what we have in store for 2024!

This session brings up so much nostalgia!

We first met Krissi when we watched her on the TV show “Masterchef.” We fell in love with her fierce character and love for cooking. We saw her passion and rooted for her the entire time! A Philadelphia native, Krissi lived relatively close to us and asked Rose to make a product for her back when she ran a boutique business. She surprised me with one of Krissi’s catering diners, where we got to make dinner together.

It truly was the best dinner (and chicken cutlet) I’ve ever had. So glad to see her again and capture her family. One of our favorite aspects of photography is being able to capture people’s raw emotions and love within families. You could feel their love for one another all throughout the session and it radiates in their photos.

Krissi, soooo good to see you again!

Mom, dad, & three boys take on Terrain Gardens!

Caitlin made it very clear that she is a HUGE Christmas fan when we initially spoke. So naturally, we had to go to the spot with lots of Christmas lights, and beautiful natural light, and they all had to be in matching flannel. These guys light up whatever room they walk in. Their kid’s energy is to die for and Doug & Caitlin’s love made us melt the entire session. You can tell that they are amazing parents and when they do the holiday season, they do it BIG!

What another beautiful and successful variety of Fall Red Truck Sessions! This year we went with some simple yet elegant decor. We decided to incorporate light blues and oranges inside of the truck with our pillows and flowers. We chose white-colored mums to carefully decorate the top portion of the truck so that they would peak out of everyone’s heads. We then decorated the right side with fairy-tale pumpkins and a mixture of orange-toned mums. This setup is definitely one of our favorites and brought a simple, bright vibe to the photos.

We met some first-time amazing families this year while also getting to catch up with some previous clients. It is so amazing to see familiar faces and have continuous support for these sessions over the years. It is crazy to think that this is our third year of Fall Red Truck Sessions! Signups for our Holiday Red Truck Sessions are live and we can’t wait to show you what we have in store!

We traveled to Penn State University for this beautiful, spring graduation session. These two lovely ladies are cousins and wanted to get their photos done with one another. So you know we had to do some cap tosses, champagne pops, and confetti pictures together. They showed us around the campus as we took photos and got to know just how down-to-earth these two are. We made the three-hour-long car ride home after but had to stop for some famous Penn State ice cream beforehand!

Meet baby Callan — or Cal for short! This newborn and lifestyle session was so refreshing. These two were down-to-earth, funny, and so inviting into their home. We incorporated the beautifully done nursery and guest bedroom into this session. They had plenty of natural light, which is the biggest thing needed with these in-home sessions. We got some stunning images from this amazing session with this adorable little fam!

We HAVEEEE to share Zack & Maggie’s beautiful summer engagement session at Valley Forge. They were guests and friends of the couple we photographed last November. These two and their puppy Campbell are absolutely adorable. We can’t wait to photograph these two on their wedding day at The Ramblewood County Club in the spring!

SOOOO much fun with our girl Jenn at the Asbury Park Dog Beach for this beautiful session. This was a super windy one, but we managed to get some amazing portraits of these two!

We first met Jenn at our boudoir marathon back in May of 2022. We hit it it off and knew she was such a genuine, sweet soul. Since then, we’ve done two other photo sessions for her and try to incorporate her dog Cali in any way we can. When she had the idea to go to the beach for this family session we had to jump on the opportunity. Some clients just become like family and Jenn is definitely one of those people

Sweet Ellie!

Matt & Briana were one of our 2020 couples. They had a beautiful backyard wedding during the height of COVID 19. So grateful to be back capturing their little family. When we saw Ellie’s nursery, we knew we had to incorperate the hand painted, space theme mural by her mom. What makes this room even more special, is that it used to be the room her father grew up in when he was younger. This session was truly a full circle moment. So grateful to capture these two and their little babe. Congratulations!

Another photographer told us while we were doing this session that Natalie has a certain old money look to her. A look filled with excellence and class. We couldn’t agree more. It was so nice to do this grad session for this sweet soul. She took our ideas and ran with them, executing them perfectly. She is off to Arizona to accomplish BIG things!! Look out for this one!

So happy for all these grads and grateful to have captured one of their last times on campus :)
